   This command installs the Perl programming language, the Mojolicious web framework, the JSON module, CGI session management, and the NGINX web server.

5. Move the extracted files to the NGINX document root directory by running the following command:

   sudo mv oddmuse-*/ /usr/share/nginx/html/
   

6. Create a new NGINX virtual host configuration file for Oddmuse by running the following command:

   sudo nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/oddmuse.conf
   

7. Paste the following configuration directives into the file:

   server {
      listen 80;
      server_name your_server_domain_or_IP;
      root /usr/share/nginx/html/oddmuse;
      index index.cgi;
      location / {
         try_files $uri $uri/ @cgi;
      }
      location @cgi {
         include fastcgi_params;
         fastcgi_pass unix:/run/fcgiwrap.sock;
         fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root/index.cgi;
      }
   }
   

   Replace your_server_domain_or_IP with the domain name or IP address of your server.
8. Save and close the file by pressing Ctrl + X, Y, and Enter.
9. Restart the NGINX web server by running the following command:

   sudo systemctl restart nginx
   

10. Create a CGI script interpreter for Oddmuse by running the following command:

11. Paste the following code into the file:

    #!/bin/sh
    export PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin
    exec /usr/bin/fcgiwrap
    

12. Save and close the file by pressing Ctrl + X, Y, and Enter.
13. Make the CGI script interpreter executable by running the following command:

    sudo chmod +x /etc/fcgiwrap.d/oddmuse
